Natalie Wynn Parrott, otherwise known as ContraPoints (https://twitter.com/ContraPoints) (https://www.contrapoints.com/videos#shame) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bbINLWtMKI), joins Ben Burgis this week. Natalie’s YouTube channel ContraPoints (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bbINLWtMKI) features lavishly produced social commentary videos that are as much substance as they are style. Her explanations and arguments relating to different topics such as “Men,” “Opulence,” “Transtrenders,” and “Pronouns,” have garnered a following of 1.12 million followers on YouTube, although most of her videos receive significantly more views than that. In this segment, Ben Burgis and Natalie discuss the 2020 presidential election, and the arguments involved for Democrats this year when it came to voting versus not voting. They also touch upon what it would take for a truly different viable party to emerge, and where both major parties currently stand, especially considering the aftermath of the Trump presidency.
